How can my husband gain healthy weight at home?

My husband is 23, 6 foot and around 10 stone. He would like to put on weight for his self confidence but he hasn't got time to go to the gym because he works long hours and we have a 10 month old boy. Our house isn't big enough for gym equipment but are there ways for him to put on weight aside from eating lots of crap? Would lifting small weights (dumbbells) at home plus using weight gain shakes work? If so what would be the best way? Thank you. How can my husband gain healthy weight at home?
Healthy fats include omega-3 essential fatty acids sources like tuna, salmon, flax, and walnuts. Good sources of protein include lean meats, fish, poultry, nuts, seeds and legumes. Healthy carbohydrate sources include fruits, vegetables and whole grains.





It may be easier to eat five or six smaller balanced meals per day rather than eating three large meals, especially if you are not used to eating much at one sitting.





Protein powders and nutritional supplement drinks such as Ensure (buy direct) can be added as in-between meal snacks if you still need more calories. Some protein powders are flavored and only need added water and some others can be blended with your choice of juice or milk to improve the taste.





It would also be a healthy idea to add a small amount of flax seed oil and some psyllium powder to add some omega-3 essential fatty acids and extra fiber. How can my husband gain healthy weight at home?
He needs to be lifting moderate to heavy weights and doing repetitions to the failure point.


Do not let him eat ';crap foods';. High protein, high fiber low starch vegetables are key,





Simple training: push ups, sit ups, abdominal crunches, and stretching are all great ways to get in shape and add muscularity. You do no need a gym or fancy home equipment.





The best part about a simple regiment like this is that he can exercise at home, on his own schedule and take care of the baby.
Yes, lifting small weights would definitely work,because building some muscles is one way to lose weight. But just doing that doesn't. What he needs to do is eat balanced food, NO junks,craps, snacks etc. Eat balanced amount of meat, veges/fruit, carbo, etc. No need to eat a lot at night, but eat WELL at morning.A piece of bread with jam, milk, some slices/etc of veges, and a little bit of a fruit would work in breakfast.. Lunch, maybe a medium sized nutritious pasta with water, then dinner, make it less than the lunch or breakfast. No need for snacks.
Yes, it sounds like he need more muscle definition. rowing is a good sport for building upper arms and thigh muscles. Although he may not have the time with a ten month old. Could he carry the boy all the time and build up his muscles this way??
chicken pasta potatoes, you can also get build up shakes to, i,m also having this problem with my husband, but he just doesn't eat
Yes I think that would work too.


Squats and deadlifts would be good too. He should eat a good amount of protein (: Then the shakes come handy.





Good luck.
yes and also extra protein...more meat like chicken and get him some special shakes from the health food shop.
